When I first had this idea to run a competition to find the fittest in Singapore and give the community a reason to train for and get together, it was a little wild and some say ambitious, but I knew it could be done and I wanted to do it. A lot didn't understand why. Maybe this little set of photos can explain it all.
I saw the passion from the athletes who made it out early and fought hard through the pain, the camaraderie of the team events, the enthusiasm from the crowd who stayed and cheered the athletes on, the community spirit that shone through when athletes make sure no one is left behind, the love and support from all who understand and breathe fitness, and the different groups of fitness (eg. runners, lifters, bodybuilders, yogis) who came together for this. What do you see?
It hasn't been an easy road to get this running and this is only Round 1 (Endurance), but hey, I'm only getting started! smile emoticon Round 2 (Power) is on 19 July before the Grand Final on 18 October!
This wouldn't have been possible without the support and help from my friends -
